Could you do us all a favor and see if the weld stick out on the inside of the piping. It would suck to buy a 3" intake with welds that stick out 1/8" - 1/4" redicing the size of the intake by 1/4" - 1/2".

 

No problem, I was wondering the same thing myself.

 

the welds on the intake are only from the outside.
what you will notice on the inside, is that the tubing is not perfectly flush.
they offset the tubes about, 1/2 material thickness, to create some turbulence, that why they don't throw codes.

The step is along the inside radius, so as far as air flow goes, there is little effect because the step up on the is equal to the step out on the outside radius.

now whether it is better to have a perfectly smooth intake like the K&N or an intake with added turbulence caused by a welded step or coupled joint, I don't know.
personally I don't think the air velocity in the intake is high enough to benefit from a completely laminar flow.

at the rate the air enters the intake, I'm sure that the volume at the end is a fractional difference if not the same.

 

Thanks for the info. It will show greater gains when you are running a smaller pulley and should give better throttle response as your intake demands increase. I think I have just been sold on the JBP intake.

 

lol, I was just answering a question that's all. ( I'm not tring to sell them )
the only reason I knew is because i have seen the Intake at talked to them about it.

 

I know you weren't, but you had the information to make me want to go through with a purchase.

 

I still want to know of there is something in side the thing that will make the air flow spin? If there is then it will restrict the intake so much that it will not make any more power then the stock one dose.

 

Only one person has this installed so far?

 

Fujita vs. JBP? Is the Fujita a 3" too?

 

I have seen the JBP and the Fujita is much better in construction. I almost bought the JBP to replace the Fujita but after I saw the JBP it changed my mind.

 

2.25"? where are you getting your info from? Where the cone is placed is 3" then goes to 2.75 the rest of the way , measured is myself

 

i contacted JBP....

"We currently do not have posted dyno numbers for both intake and exhaust system. The exhaust is milled to have 3-4% increase from stock, and the intake 4-5% increase from stock...

We offer reseller status, which requires filling out our application form. Please go ahead and let us know if you are interested."

translated to 8-10 hp claim, but no dyno...
hmmmm

 

So who has gotten the new design one? I'm still waiting for mine.

there is nothing inside that causes the air to spin except for the offset piping

 

player_1, dispelling rumors one by one.

 

I talk to him fairly regularly, because of all the stuff I got from him, and I even get to see some of his stuff before it's released.

and customer service is A+++

 

agreed^^
